A rock on 495 did my windshield some damage. With the fluctuating weather of hot, cold, and rain, the 3 inch crack quickly spread to 6 in a right angle formation. Sucks.
After doing some shopping around at Safelite, Banner, and Virginia Glass, I believe that Royal was the cheapest/most convenient - $220 for glass, installation, and tax. I didn't see too many reviews about it online, but my cousin told me about them.
Their website is not much to look at, but don't be deterred. They were prompt to call back with a quote, straightforward to deal with, and offered to have somebody out to my office by the next day - no extra charge. True to their word, someone called early the day of the scheduled appointment and gave me a 2 hour time span in which to expect him. The technician was friendly, jovial, and a half hour earlier than expected. I could watch him from my window while he quickly went to work like a seasoned pro, and badabing badaboom, within a half hour he was pretty much done.
While I was never happy to have to spend this money, Royal Glass made it a smooth, hassle-free process. If only more services were like this. I'd definitely recommend them. read more
